RMC 5015

1U Rackmount System

Select Workstation if your system is used as a Workstation. Select Server if your system is used as
a Server. Select "Disabled, (Full Speed @12V)" to disable the fan speed control function and allow
the onboard fans to constantly run at the full speed (12V). The Options are Disabled, 4-Pin (Server),
4-Pin (Workstation) and

4-Pin (Super Quiet)].

CPU Overheat Alarm

This option allows the user to select the CPU Overheat Alarm setting which de- termines when the
CPU OH alarm will be activated to provide warning of possible CPU overheat.

Warning: Any temperature that exceeds the CPU threshold temperature predefined by the
CPU manufacturer may result in CPU overheat or system instability. When the CPU tempera
ture reaches this predefined threshold, the CPU and system cooling fans will run at full speed.

The options are:

The Default Alarm: Select this setting if you want the CPU overheat alarm (including the LED and
the buzzer) to be triggered when the CPU temperature reaches about 5oC above the threshold
temperature as predefined by the CPU manufacturer to give the CPU and system fans additional
time needed for CPU and system cooling.

The Early Alarm: Select this setting if you want the CPU overheat alarm (including the LED and the
buzzer) to be triggered as soon as the CPU temperature reaches the CPU overheat threshold as
predefined by the CPU manufacturer.

This screen also displays Voltage Monitoring information:

Vcore, +3.3Vcc, 12V, VDIMM, 5V, Chipset 1.5V, 3.3Vsb, and Vbatt.

Note: In the Windows OS environment, the Supero Doctor III (SD III) settings take precedence
over the BIOS settings. When first installed, SD III adopts the temperature threshold settings
previously set in the BIOS. Any subsequent changes to these thresholds must be made within
SD III, since the SD III settings override the BIOS settings. For the Windows OS to adopt the
BIOS temperature threshold settings, please change the SD III settings to be the same as
those set in the BIOS.
